FEES AND SALARIES.

The city Of Brooklyn is proposing to
do a thing thut ought to be done every
where. An investigating committee has
reported to the Legislature that the Of
flee of County Clerk, Register and
Sheriff have been used as pc. itical re-
wards and for political purposes, and
that their emolumentS-amou 10
AN average of $40, 200 year are ont of
all proportion to the services rendered.
The committee recommend that these
Offices be made salnried and that fees
thought this will be done. It should be
done everywhere. Under the national
rule practically all Offices have specific
salary attached to them and so it ought
to be. There is no more reuson why
CLERK, q Recorder or Sheriff should
not have specific salary than there is
Why book keeper or bank cashier
should not have. The public should
pay reasonable wages for the services
rendered to it, and no more, just ns men
in the private business of life do. In this
way competent aud faithful oHicinIs
would be obtained for much less than
they can be under the fee system. while
at the same slime there would he less
temptation afforded the interruptions to
Increase their revenues by ways and
means not in accordance with the prin-
ciples of strict integrity.

w Cause OF tho Break.
NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, Jan. li.-Thas
portion Of the rugged bank nearest the
Horse Shoe Falls, or the Canada eide,
known as "Upper Table Rock," fell at an
early hour yesterday morning with o
deafening crash, that was heard mile
away. Thousands Of tons OF solid rock
fell into the gorge below, and with it hun.
dreds Of tons Of ice. The exact position
Of the break is between the Prospect House
and the great Horse Shoe Falls, just above
tho old Table Rock and next to the spiral
stairway leading to tho path behind the
sheet Of water. It was only by miracle
that the stairway WAC not demolished.
The Government iron railing for over 100
feet WAS carried away.
II Is at this spot that nearly all the
visitors stand and get view OF the falls.
Had this fall OF rock occurred in the day
time undoubtedly heavy lose OF lie
would have occurred. The formation OF
the precipice is now entirely changed.
One can now stand on the bank above
and Gee behind the heavy sheet Of water
into dark chasm. A mass OF limestone
and slate 1000 feet in length by about GO
feet in width and ITO feet deep is piled in
a heap below. One hundred and twenty.

to have fallen. The supposed cause oil

CATTLE RANGES DRYING UP,


The Prolonged Drauuhs Cnusing Great
Anxiety in Texas.
{ GALVESTON, Tex, (, Jan. 14.-Dispatohes
from almost every quarter Of Texas dur.
ing the past week tell Of general anxiety
existing throughout the length and
breadth OF the State over q prolonged
drought. Throughout the vaat area EN-.
braced within the great cattle and cotton
districts known as the Panhandle, North
Texas, West Texas, South Texao, and tho
central cotton belt, no rain has fallen
since September !, nearly four and half
months. While reports from the cattle
and sheep districts do not as yet chronicle
any serious loss OF stock by reason OF
droughts, the result ia none the less disas.
trous, as the vast cattle ranges are drying
up. No new grass is growing and tho III.
Innate fate Of stock is inevitable.
Cattlemen who have just returned from
the southwest section OF the State beyond
San Antonio, tell OF riding for days over
parched praries covered with dry grass,
whereas this section Of Texas in past years
has been one great carpet OF green grass,
about the area Of Pennsylvania. In tho
northwest, from Wichita Falls to Fort
Elliott, the cry Of the cat.lemen is "rain,
rain" and widespread alarm cxists. In
Northern and Central Texas, around Dial.
las, Fort Worth, Sherman and Waco,
where the wheat and other small grains OF
Texas arc grown, the situation is no better
than in the cattle districts, and the wheat
fields must all be plowed in the spring,
rendering the outlook for farmers gloomy.
